3rd Grade Relief
My eldest son started his new school today. I hardly slept last night because of worrying about how his day was going to go for him. When I left him at school this morning it was everything I could do not to cry. I wasn’t this emotional when I left him at Kindergarten. I said a prayer or two (hundred) during the day today and couldn’t wait to pick him up from school just so I could hear how it went.
I get up to him in car line and the first words out of his mouth were "I had a great day, Mom". Tears welled up. "It was awesome". "I loved my lunch". Lol. I literally started laughing at the lunch comment. He was excited because he was served fruit AND broccoli. He said "the teachers don’t yell and everybody is nice." Wow. I’m really glad I switched him. 
Talk about relief. I honestly felt as if a huge weight was lifted off of my shoulders. Ever since then I’ve wanted to do nothing but go to sleep. You know how it is when you are completely stressed and worried about something ? How it wears you out ? How you feel when you no longer have to worry ? Like you could sleep like Rip Van Winkle ? Well, that’s me right now.
Peace out, Babycakes. Sweet dreams.
